I wanted General Richter to be a towering statue of a man who's both physically imposing and also tough looking, which I think the first design didn't portray very well.
Here's both the designs, the old one first and the new one second.

| The first concept I did; I'm not entirely happy with his look and think it was an 'on the spot' thing as I needed a sixth villain quickly for my poster draft. He looked a bit goofy and small to be the character I envisioned, so this design is a piece of developmental work. |

| General Richter MK II; This design was done today and I took my time with it. Taking inspiration from big villains like Bane from Batman and military types from various media, I created a new look for the General, making him tall and imposing, but also giving him some anatomy unlike his rather ugly first design. I also changed his attire, giving him a mercenary vest over his old ISR jacket, changing his 'earthquake fists' into normal hands with one arm robotic. I really like this new design, it's quite imposing and militant, whilst also looking more intimidating than before. |
